YOU DO NOT NEED A PAYPAL ACCOUNT TO ORDER OUR MERCHANDISE.

HOW TO PLACE AN ORDER

When you are finished adding all items to your virtual shopping cart, click on View Cart unless you are already in your cart (not literally, this isn't the kind of cart you can just climb into kiddies), follow these instructions:

1. FILL OUT ALL OF THE FIELDS (shipping address, phone number, email address, any coupon code you have), and hit the continue button at the bottom. If you have missed a required field you will be re-directed back to this page over and over until all information has been entered.

2. You will be directed to our secure payment processing site, Paypal, where you can log-into your Paypal account if you wish to use that account to pay for this transaction, or you can enter your personal credit card information by filling out the required fields on the left. If you have a Paypal account, but do not wish to use it to pay for this transaction, when Paypal detects you have an existing account, simply choose to continue without logging into your Paypal account. Then click on the review payment button at the bottom.

3. You will then be directed back to our Review Order page. After doing so, click on the "Send Order" button.

4. If your order went through properly, you will be looking at the Confirmation page now. If not, there was an error and your order and payment were not processed. Make sure you have the funds available, then either try again, or contact us and we can walk you through the process. If you do get the Confirmation page, you should also receive a Confirmation email. If you do not receive the email, contact us immediately to ensure your order was processed.

Good luck, and we have faith in you. It's easy!

Validating Your Order

After placing your order using our secure online shopping cart, we will check the information you give us for validity, by verifying your method of payment and shipping address. After we have completed a review, we will either accept or deny your order. You will be notified upon completion of review if your order has been denied via an email stating the reason(s) for denial and if any action will be taken.

Order Acceptance/Confirmation

Your receipt of an electronic, or other form of order confirmation, does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell merchandise to you. Gypsies Do It Better reserves the right to accept or decline your order for any reason at any time. In order to protect us, we cannot ship large orders to a Post Office Box or Drawer, and we will need a physical address. If your order is marked as "Pending Review" we will ship your order upon transaction clearance from your bank, and any orders requesting expedited shipping will be shipped after review is conducted. If we feel you have committed a crime during your transaction, or the transaction is fraudulent, we reserve the right to refuse to do business with you.

Tracking

You will be sent a link in your Order Confirmation email, which will allow you to track the status of your order in-house. After your order is packaged and shipped, you can track your parcel via one of the following links: USPS, UPS, or Paypal.

We utilize our local USPS (United States Postal Service) for most shipping needs as we have found it to be the most cost efficient and reliable way to ship our merchandise. However, in an effort to better serve you, we have integrated with UPS (United Parcel Service) and now offer 3 day delivery and Worldwide Express, which offers real time charges, tracking, and shipment updates. Some areas are currently unavailable for UPS.

All terms, conditions, and amounts are subject to change without notice, at any time.

Please note: We fully reserve the right not to ship to any unconfirmed Paypal addresses.

If we are required to verify your address and payment information with the bank that issues your credit card, this will delay the processing of your order significantly.

Gypsies Do It Better practices strict fraud prevention policies.

If your order appears fraudulent, we will ask you to provide us with further verification of your credit card. *Note: An email response from you is not verification. We must have proof that you are the owner of the card before we will continue to process your order.

Web stores like ours are vulnerable to chargeback’s from customers using credit cards fraudulently. For your protection, as well as ours, we may require that your order be shipped to your billing address if the items ordered are especially valuable, if an American Express card was used, or if a Post Office Box is listed as the shipping address.

We reserve the right to refuse service or cancel any orders that appear suspicious or fraudulent at our discretion. All fraudulent transactions are investigated and prosecuted in accordance with the law. Again, we fully reserve the right not to ship to any unconfirmed Paypal addresses. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Note about FPO/APO and P.O. Boxes:

UPS does not offer service to APO/FPO addresses or P.O. Boxes - Please select USPS. All P.O. box and FPO/APO orders will ship via USPS no matter the delivery method selected at checkout.

Orders exceeding $75 in value, large orders, and all orders purchased with American Express are shipped requiring signature confirmation - You will have to sign for your package. In addition, we reserve the right to send any packages via signature confirmation if we deem it necessary due to known issues with theft in certain neighborhoods or in large metropolitan areas.

We are not responsible for lost or stolen items, or anything that happens to a package once it is in the hands of the Postal Service or Parcel Service.

Customers will be sent a link in your Order Confirmation email where you may check the status of your order on our site. You may also track your parcel at USPS or UPS.

Returned Packages

If the package was undeliverable due to a postal error, and the address is correct, the post office should reship the package at no additional cost. We will attempt to reship the order with our next shipment.

We have chosen a very secure online shopping cart with many features that protect ourselves, and the customer, from information input errors such as incorrect addresses, or not filling in any required fields such as a telephone number, and/or any fraudulent activity. Therefore, it is very unlikely that any shipping errors will rest with you, the customer, or us, the store. However, in the event that the customer does make an input error, moved, or any unforseen problem occurs on the customer's behalf, please read the following information:

In the event that a package is deemed undeliverable due to an error by the customer, she or he will be responsible for re-shipping costs. Upon receipt of reshipping costs, we will attempt to reship the order with our next shipment.

In the event the customer refuses to pay re-shipping costs, and the delivery error rests with her or him, we will not reship the order and no refund/store credit will be given. Please note that all undeliverable merchandise will be returned to the floor for resale.

In the event that we are unable to contact the customer within 21 days of our first attempt, we will not reship the order and no refund/store credit will be available. All undeliverable merchandise will be returned to the floor for resale.

RETURN POLICY

CLEARANCE ITEMS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE/NON-EXCHANGEABLE-ALL SALES FINAL!

Please note that, due to most garments being used, there are bound to be flaws no matter how minute. However, we thoroughly inspect and describe to the best of our ability each item and any major flaws (i.e. missing buttons, tears, runs, broken zippers, etc.) in the "Product Description" section. However, it is impossible to see and describe every minor snag or loose hem. We post one or more photos that can be enlarged so you can inspect the garment as well, but keep in mind colors may differ on computer monitors.

If an item does not have a particular measurement, photo angle, or is missing information important to you please inquire about any additional information necessary for a pleasurable transaction. We cannot authorize cash or shipping refunds unless the item has a major flaw outside of normal light wear that was not listed in the description of the item.

Most Returns are due to fit issues. Please check the measurements listed, and consult our sizing guides before ordering. Some of our new items have an incorrect size listed on the tag, and that is how they wind up with us. The garment is not irregular, only a mis-sized tag. Therefore, we list measurements for you to check in the event that the size listed is incorrect so there are no problems. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help!

So if you have any questions at all please email us or call us directly at 805-234-6159 before making your purchase so hopefully we can avoid any potential problems.

We want you to be super happy with every item you purchase from us. If you are not satisfied with an item you have purchased, you may return it within 14 business days of delivery for store credit.

You have 3 days to request a return and 14 business days to return your item(s) for store credit. After 14 days, your return will be subject to a 20% restocking fee. Returns are not accepted after 20 days (exceptions made for international customers so please contact us regarding returns).

Sorry, no refunds. Refunds are only given if we grossly mis-represent an item ordered, and shipping is also refunded in that event.

We never accept lingerie returned for any reason! This includes hosiery, socks, panties, any boxed or packaged lingerie that includes a thong or g-string. However, corsets and waist cinchers are acceptable as long as they do not include a thong or g-string with the set. If you aren't sure about ordering lingerie, please ask so we both can have a pleasureable transaction. We carry some of the finest vintage lingerie in the U.S., and many Pin-up models have purchased some extraordinary pieces!

Please allow up to 2 weeks for all returns to be processed. We will contact you within 2 weeks with your store credit information via a coupon code as noted above. If you haven't received an email within 2 weeks, check your bulk / spam folder. Please don't call or email requesting information about your return until after this 2 week period has passed.

Store credit applies toward merchandise only, not shipping or Paypal fees. Original shipping charges and return shipping charges and new shipping charges will not be credited and are the responsibility of the customer. Therefore, please make any inquirements necessary before placing your order. *Prices are subject to change at any time. We do not honor promotional discounts after a sale is over. Please take advantage of our sales and promotions during their specified time frames. If you buy an item on sale, your discount savings does not apply toward future orders.

Return Instructions

Please request a return within 3 days of receiving your order via email or by phone for return authorization.

Upon authorization for the return, you must return the item in the same condition as you received it (which will be judged at our discretion).

The item must be in the same condition, unworn, with tags still attached (when applicable) in any original packaging, and with all paperwork, parts, manuals & accessories to ensure receipt of store credit. Incomplete returns will not be credited. Any item(s) returned as COD (Cash On Delivery) will be refused!

Anything sent back after 20 days will be returned to the floor, and no credit will be extended.

Pack the item securely. If returning footwear: Do not apply tape or labels directly to the shoe or otherwise damaging any garment or you will not receive credit.

You are responsible for postage fees sending the item back to us. Send your package with tracking. We are not responsible for lost or damaged packages.

Store Credit will be issued in the form of a coupon code which will be emailed to. The coupon code can't be combined with other sales, discounts, or coupons. Your store credit will be the value of the returned item minus any discount applied towards your original purchase (i.e sales prices will be credited as sale prices, but sales discounts will not be given toward new purchases). Shipping fees will be deducted from the store credit amount. Store credits are issued as one-time increments, if the total credit is under $30.00. You make break it up into two-time increments (two seperate orders) if your credit totals over $30, but you must request that prior to placing your first store credit order.

Customs, duties, taxes, postage and other related charges are the sole responsibility of the customer and cannot be refunded. We will reimburse you for any postage (within reason) if an error occurred when filling your order.

STREET TEAM

Gypsies Do It Better an online Rockabilly Retro Vintage Punk and Pinup Thrift Boutique is putting together a Street Team of customers and fans to tell our tale!

GDIB Street Team Guidelines

A Street team is: “a group of people who 'hit the streets' promoting a particular company, brand, or band. A modern version of a credible "cool" field marketer promoting a company for free [I offer a point system for free merchandise] with the ability to create hype for that company through credible peer-to-peer interactions and viral word-of-mouth influence in their communities.

Usually, a street team is formed by a loyal fan base who can get into key markets through strong street hype and "street-cred", and try to get on the local radio stations through hype/word-of-mouth.”

• Gypsies Do It Better (GDIB) Street Teamers:

I am putting together a street team consisting of cats of all ages ranging from teens to geriatrics! Anyone with a strong influence over their peers, and whom are looked to for what's hot, what's next, or where to get what are welcome to apply! Members must be enthusiastic, professional, articulate, friendly, honest, respectful, and up-to-date on GDIB inventory, events, and information.

I am looking for a credible street team in order to promote my store and make it more visible through word-of-mouth, blogging, bulletins, flyers, stickers, business cards, models, and friends. GDIB has a lot to offer and we need to get the word out! GDIB's street team members must be willing to work hard at getting people into my store (onto my website) and buying merchandise.

GDIB WILL NOT BE ASSOCIATED WITH, NOR WILL GDIB TOLERATE ANY ILLEGAL ACTIONS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!

You will be banned from the street team if anyone is caught doing anything illegal, harmful, distasteful, or otherwise while promoting GDIB! I retain the right to take away your membership at anytime.

This is not a job, and you are not an employee of GDIB. GDIB's street team is comprised of fans who become members like any club and who volunteer their time to promote GDIB. However, you will be rewarded for your promotional efforts, especially for any sales GDIB generates on your behalf, via a point system as noted below.

One great perk of being a GDIB street team member is that it isn't all work and no play. I want my street team promoting at punk shows, car shows, roller derbies, clubs, concerts, and anywhere punks, rockabillys, goths, and alternative cats gather. This is a great opportunity to meet new friends and have lots of fun!

The concept is a group of street team members dedicated to promoting GDIB while enjoying themselves. Street teams will work together inside and outside of their homes. Promotion is unlimited as far as where to promote GDIB: at school, your job, at shows, hanging out, while walking down the boulevard, under a bridge, online, in line wherever you see someone you think might enjoy GDIB gear! Usually street teams are unpaid fans, but I offer free clothes on a point system.

• Street Team Point System:

I maintain a charted point system for each street team member. As you earn points, you will be able to “buy” merchandise from GDIB with your points. Points are assigned to an individual for a particular action - the better the action (such as a sale for me) the more points you earn. Each applicant will receive points per actions list. Points can be used at GDIB anytime for any item. They don’t go away, unless you “spend” em. If you want to save your points to buy something later, go ahead. If your points are “burnin a hole in your pocket”, and you want to spend em as soon as you get em, go ahead (I have $1 items in my clearance section). It’s up to you! However, you must have the points to use em. There is no “credit” given, and you cannot put something “on hold” until you earn enough points.

1 point = $1 towards store credit

Street team members will meet once a month to discuss campaign strategies, explore ways to create peer influence, elevate sales, share stories and ideas, and generally catch up, straighten out kinks, and discuss what’s been happening or coming up.

I have a warehouse sale two or more times a year when I need to move out the old and stale to make room for the new and tasty. If you want to volunteer your time to help me set up, conduct, surveillance, and put away for these sales you will earn points.

Street Teamers can do the following to promote GDIB:

• Place stickers and posters up in your communities (nowhere that would be considered illegal)

• Bring friends to the GDIB website

• Convince friends to buy GDIB merchandise

• Phone your local radio stations for a chance to plug GDIB (but not excessively). You mustn’t be annoying!

• Bring business cards, stickers, etc. into clubs, concerts, shows, events where punks gather, and pass em out

• Put up flyers (again, nowhere illegal)

• Post to forums, blogs, and bulletin boards online

• Maintain zines or websites either created by GDIB or by you dedicated to Gypsies Do It Better

If you have a suggestion for marketing, please get authorization from me before you do anything other than the above. Most likely I will be excited about the new idea, but sometimes I might decline.

Also, I am an artist and love to meet new artists! If you are an artist and think you could create a great flyer, poster, picture, or ad about GDIB please feel free to do so. You can submit it to me via the email address below, and, if it isn't too explicit, I will post it on GDIB!

To apply for street team membership, please email me at lindsay@gypsiesdoitbetter.com and tell me why you would be an asset to the GDIB Street Team. I will respond to all inquiries within 48 hours! Good luck!
